Sandra Lillian Brosam has seen the belly of the beast. She has seen lightning strike twice. She has lived every parent's worst nightmare. Sandra lost her first child suddenly in a car accident and her fourth child eight years later to cancer. This memoir not only tells the emotional story of losing a child, but presents suggestions and ideas for helping others who may be experiencing the illness or death of a loved one. Based on her personal experiences, Brosam gives suggestions for what to do, what not to do, what to say, and how best to support others. Written from the heart with total candor, Love & Courage empowers others to reach down into their souls and find the courage to help themselves and those suffering the loss of a loved one. Augmented with letters of love and poems of solace, this enlightening guide demonstrates that pain is often beyond words, but never beyond love.

Lord, no one loves me like You. No one comforts me like You. No one shelters me like You. There is no one, there is no one like You. Lord, no one can give me peace but You. No one can give me hope but You. No one can give me strength but You. There is no one, there is no one like You. Lord, no one is a friend like You. No one could save me from sin but You. No one believes in me like You. There is no one, there is no one like You. At some point in life, everyone has their faith tested. At those times we need hope, inspiration, and strength. The poems in It’s All About You spring from such moments in the author’s life and offer that much needed encouragement. Readers are introduced, or re-introduced, to God, as Creator, Jesus Christ as King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Holy Spirit, and given guidance on how to live a spirit-filled life. Poems address topics that affect us all, such as relationships and self-worth, death and grief, victories and defeats. It’s All About You is intended for a young adult and adult Christian readership.

Patty O'Mara-Croft's "widowmaker" heart attack was a cruel assault on her body, threatening the happiest years of her life. Originally misdiagnosed as a panic attack, common among women who suffer heart attacks, Patty's heart suffers permanent damage, and her precarious condition threatens to raze all joy and hope between Patty and her husband, Brian. In a recounting both informative and inspirational, heartbreaking and funny, Patty and Brian share their stories from their own unique perspectives—the first-person account of painful revelations and medical struggles and a loved one's experience of despair, hope, and renewal. Families in medical crisis are getting sucker-punched every day and need help from those who overcame it and emerge stronger than before. The dual voice of both authors represents a love that flourishes, even as Patty's health weakens and is no longer a viable candidate for a heart transplant. Pulse of My Heart is part medical mystery, part comedy of errors, part family drama, and an enduring love story. The field notes at the back of the book focus on: The sometimes-strained relationship between doctors and patient Preparing for anticipatory grief The potential for addiction when narcotics are part of the drug protocol Dealing with familial strife during a time of need Struggling with others' prayers when one's own faith is strained Trying to maintain some level of dignity in an utterly undignified environment Finding ways to be an effective parent in a blended family when illness demands so much attention
